In the wise words of FKWG Fearless leader, Michael Johnson: ‘The triple option is a creation of Satan.’ And I could not agree more.
The Broncos’ real test of how far they’ve come since the UTEP debacle starts in earnest against, arguably, one of the best teams in the Mountain West in the Air Force Falcons (5-2).
The Broncos (the team and the fans) seem to have a weird mental block when it comes to the academy and the triple option. Probably because of all the weird stuff that tends to happen.
Prepare yourselves emotionally for few possessions, a quick game, Air Force getting more than their fair share of ground yards, and the Falcons getting at least one or two explosive pass plays over the top.
But, as always:
Let’s go, fellows
Broncos respond to the triple option, “Get behind me thee Satan”, and cast the Falcons into the pit.
I’m really hoping that Holani, Jeanty and Green put up about 150 yards each on the ground giving Air Force a taste of their own medicine…
Full disclosure: I hate this game. Every year
GO BRONCOS!!!
Holy crap…..we actually stopped the option! Lol
Jones blew him up!
Good defense to start by the Broncos!
The Gently, Crowe, Noah combo is looking good. Solid O-line play as well.
I hate spell check!
Jeanty not gently….
Dang, 2 inch line, but it will be a 1st down.

Looks like we gonna try to out-Air Force the Air Force.
🥐turnover!

little passes for Green. His mechanics look a tad bit better. As he rolls out I hope he is looking down field before checking down to the RB as it looks like a faster throw to the RB would be better. Koetter and Green should be besties by the seasons end (I hope sooner).
Guess they are going to review all bsu plays.
🏈🏈🏈.
51 yards 🏈🏈🏈
Thus far… Offense struggling despite what the scoreboard says. Defense impenetrable.
Nevermind. The D is penetrable after all
Another 🏈🏈🏈
We need TD’s.
RIP Camdan McWright. My prayers for your parents.
Wow, just wow
Incredible D when we needed it the most.
Taylen is the man
That was ugly and I’m glad it’s over
Adverse conditions:
1. Down our top 2 RBs
2. Down two starting OL
3. Redshirt freshman QB
4. On the road
This was a strong gut check win against a team that is known for very disciplined and tough defenses.
